One of the biggest coups of the 2024 class was flipping WR Ny Carr from the Georgia Bulldogs. The freshman WR spoke to CanesInSight about his transition to Miami:
On avoiding the freshman wall: You can never feel like you’re too comfortable. Always have the mindset of grind, grind, grind. The more you learn, the easier it will be. Watching film, watching the older guys, day in and day out, and asking questions.
On adjusting to the big city: I can get used to the big city stuff. I’m from a small town, but the type of person I am, I like to get out and see stuff. My mom stays in Tampa. My dad’s back in Georgia, but he’s been down a lot. They’re glad I made the decision I made.
On the competition amongst the freshmen: We’re really focused on learning. We’re going to need to step up and do our job because anything can happen at any moment.
On where he lines up: I’m at X behind Isaiah [Horton], but you never know how that might go. You just have to trust the process. I’m also at kick returner and punt returner.
On adjusting to the different quarterbacks: Our quarterback room is so good, when one of them is out nothing changes. You don’t miss a beat.
On hearing from Michael Irvin and Andre Johnson: The stuff they did here was amazing. Being able to see them come back and pour into us, that was a great thing.
